There are thousands of local cuisines in China. No matter where you go, you can also eat local specialties. For example, some local cuisines are famous, not only in the local area, but also in other places, such as coarse grains and pancake fruit.

However, there are many special cuisines that can't be imitated in other places, because some local cuisines can't be accepted by foreigners, and if they are improved, they will lose their original flavor, so these cuisines will only be popular in the local area, and only local people will eat them. If they are outside the local area, few people will care about them. Here are a few cuisines that are difficult to imitate, and Beijing accounts for two, so only local people will eat them, and foreigners will.

1. Bean juice

This is a kind of breakfast that Beijing people like to eat. Locals are used to nagging a bowl every morning. Of course, only in Beijing can they drink this authentic bean juice, because it is a little special and has a distinctive taste, but its taste is only acceptable to locals. Foreigners will feel that it tastes like rotten water when they drink it, so they can only stay away from it and be natural.

2. Fried liver

It's also a special Beijing food. It looks a bit like pot-stewed food, and it's all dark brown, but the taste and pot-stewed taste are still very different. Old Beijingers love this kind of food badly. Many southerners will come to Beijing to eat a bowl of fried liver after hearing about it, but later they find that they all take it for granted because it tastes too strong.

3. Cow-flat Hot Pot

This is a special hot pot in Guizhou. It is a soup base made of grass and bile that have not been fully digested in the cow's stomach. The hot pot cooked in this way is so unique in taste, with heavy grass flavor and bitter taste that people in other regions can't follow suit.

4. Crab with red paste

It's a special food in Ningbo. To put it bluntly, it's a kind of raw and salted food. For residents who live by the sea, it's a very common cold dish, and it's also quite famous. However, for inland people, they will worry about whether this food is safe, let alone imitate it.
